Trivia

Ken Berry and Lucille Ball actually worked together many years before Lucy asked Ken to guest star in a 1968 episode of The Lucy Show. In the 1950s, Ken was an early member of the talent development program at Desilu. He left that team after just 6 months to pursue a role on Broadway. Then he returned to Desilu Productions in 1960, taking a recurring role (starting in the second season) in the CBS sitcom, The Ann Sothern Show.
